Short Circuit at Teacher's Home in Mumbai Charrs 175 Class 12 Papers
Hindustan Times Rajasthan
|March 16, 2025
In a bizarre twist, 175 answer sheets of Class 12 students who took this paper in the board exam last month went up in flames at the Virar residence of the teacher assigned to grade them.
MUMBAI: The answer sheets were of students in the Commerce stream, the subject being 'Organisation of Commerce'.
Bolinj police have registered a case of negligence against the teacher, as state board regulations mandate that answer sheets be assessed in the school premises. A case of negligence has also been registered against the principal of the Virar-based junior college in question, as the custodian of answer sheets.
The incident, caused by a suspected short circuit in the teacher's home, surfaced after a video of the burnt answer sheets went viral on social media, prompting police action. The teacher lives in Nanabhat in Virar.
